Hi
Is there any provision for change of the centre? I was expecting my doj in october so i filled the centre as Pune but now it seems to be getting delayed. So i'll have to stay in north itself. Can i apply for a centre change or will have to travel in order to appear for CAT?

Hi.. I want to the status of CAF but the IIMK website is not accessible for me. Is it the same with eveyone?
Last time I had sent CAT form barely a week before the last date. So I kept track.
This time I sent it 20 days in advance. So didn't bother to check the status.

The CAT bulletin clearly mentions that applications should be sent only via registered or speed post.
so u better not use BLUE DART or any other courier company.

Hi munna, thanks for suggestion.
I called them twice and mentioned the issue proeprly, but no luck. Even I told them that I have a photo copy , speed post receipt and 2nd copy of bank slip. They have only one response , nothing to do, what ever applications they have received, allreday updated.
So, I do notknow to whom I have to speak.
hi tuhin,
this is rather perplexing.instead of relying the data reg the delivery of the speed post material from the net,approach the postal authorities and clarify.if the data given at the site is correct after that too, then the iim is responsible for the safe custody of the application.during such needs always try to reach someone high up in the administration.office clerks will be least sympathetic.get in touch with the admission coordinator directly.the best possible option could be to visit iimb and talk to them.

mail the concerned authorities regarding the same.. or better still call them up and tell your problem... do tell them that you have the xerox and speed post receipt... by the way you would also be having the 2nd copy of the bank's slip ??... you can mention that too...

there is no way you can get a correct answer to that, it is never declared like this, what you can probably do if you are really serious in finding that out is, you can visit the cat 2007 results thread, and from there you can see all the results and make a analysis of your own
yes it is a 6 digit number...

Thanks very much.It makes me a lot more relieved now.
well, you can regenerate your admit card through the web. you just need to get it attested from the test center on the day before the test. no worries
beware... cat admit card is NOT sent by registered post... it is sent as normal post... immediately contact the concerned iim with your problem... also go through the brochure ( just in case there is a mention of a solution to such a problem )...

Yes true.When you hand delivered it,then you need not worry ..Study well..Good luck..

+1 for the bagged stage at speed post site.
mine application also being shown in the bagged stage only. i sent the form on 22 Aug still it shows at the IIM-L site as not received.
Any idea if something needs to be done right now or not?
Or just simply wait and hope for the best.
